Lyrics:
He Didn’t Do
Verse 1
My old man came from the wrong side of the tracks,
He loved breaking momma’s heart like his whiskey glass,
He used those same ways he broke her in two,
On sister and me but we never knew,
Bullying wasn’t something he didn’t do,
Verse 2
He was only strong as the weakest in our house,
Life hit hard with him but we all survived somehow,
Like the devil in disguise he lied to us to,
I prayed knowing God would help me make it through,
Believing was something Dad didn’t do,
Chorus 1
Didn’t do the crazy fights, with my wife,
Didn’t make my kids run, scream, and hide,
Didn’t leave em’ feeling so black and blue,
I learned a lot about life from him, that’s the truth,
By doing everything he didn’t do,
Verse 3
Nowadays I’m raising a family of my own,
Life’s been better since he’s been good and gone,
When it came to a Dad I couldn’t pick or choose,
Sometimes I wonder what was his excuse,
For doing everything, I wouldn’t do,
Chorus 2
Didn’t do the crazy fights, with my wife,
Didn’t make my kids run, scream, and hide,
Didn’t leave em’ feeling so black and blue,
I learned a lot about life from him, that’s the truth,
By doing everything, by doing everything, he didn’t do,
Bridge
It may be hard to understand,
He made me… a better man…,
(Chorus 2) - Repeat
Outro
I learned a lot about life from him, that's the truth,
By doing everything he didn’t do…
By doing everything he didn’t do…..
